Forgot about the dressage exchange rate. x_x
2+ hours of wakeup, layer clothes, trek to barn, tack, warm up, circles and circles and leg yields and transitions and bending FOREVER--
All for three seconds of a really Good canter, and a leg yield that didn't suck as much as the rest.
Surprisingly, running on the side has been working well in conjunction.
So far, legs are hardly sore in the mornings, which is a fucking MIRACLE because riding kills leg muscles like nothing else.
I'm gonna have DEM THIGHS by the end of the semester.
